Our reporter Jack Vittles has arrived to follow the side over the next few days and bring us all the action from tonight’s pre-season game, as well as keeping fans updated with the latest from Darrell Clarke and his players.

Rovers could give a first run out to new signing Tom Nichols this evening following his move from Peterborough United, while Arsenal loanee Marc Bola could be thrust into the side after featuring against Gloucester City.

Will we see the new signing?

Half time 0-0

And what a 45 mins it was for Rovers. It had everything except a goal.

I’m off to cool down somewhere under the stand for 5 mins, I’ll be back in 10 mins or so for the second half.

Expect subs a plenty!
